A book for probability
Hello,
I recommend you a book on probability: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/book.html
It has a nice practical approach.

Re: A book for probability
Hi gAr;
That is a good book.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.
